Census Block Groups (2020, Wyoming)
Boundaries of Wyoming's census block groups as drawn for the 2020 census. A block group is the smallest area the Census Bureau publishes socioeconomic data for — roughly 600 to 3,000 people, about 1,300 in Wyoming, typically a few residential streets — and it is the geography the census population and American Community Survey figures are mapped on.
